My Sunday Photo – June 4th 2017

It’s been over a week since I last posted, have you missed me? My photo may give you some idea of where I’ve been. It’s the grab machines in the arcade of a British Holiday Camp.

Hi De Hi!

My kids love the arcade and would happily spend hours and hours in one.

Thankfully we did lots of other things other than spend all my money in the arcade, I’ll post all about it soon, including my very special pilgrimage which I was so excited about.

Ah, but grab machines, don’t you just hate them? I do, they swallow all your money and you rarely get anything in return, it’s so sad seeing your little ones face when you try over and over and never win them a prize. Thankfully, my three are wise to them now and enjoy doing other things instead. The Little Man was addicted to the machine that made candy floss. I think he had one every day. Star was queen of the tuppence drop machines, she could make one pound of of 2ps last for hours. Boo liked to browse around different machines winning tokens to spend in the gift shop.

We had a lovely little break away and although we arrived in the rain it stayed away for the rest of the week and we were able to get a lot of time on the beach.

Hi Anne, those grab machines are so frustrating as they do attract the children! I am glad to hear that tuppence drop machines are still around, it was our treat when we went to Dawlish as children. Judging by your photo games arcades haven't changed much in the last thirty years!

So glad you managed to enjoy yourself too, bet the chair made a huge difference for you.

Glad you had a lovely time away. My girls love grab machines although I rarely agree to try to win them something. I used to be quite good at them though. I'm impressed that Star can make a pound's worth of 2ps last for ages 🙂

Welcome

Hello, I'm Anne and I've been blogging here since 2011. I'm an older mum with five children and love blogging about our family life and adventures. I'm also fond of cats, cake, Terry Pratchett books, any books, Dr Who, Adventure Time, the colour purple and my bed. I'm currently wheelchair bound after getting a very rare condition called Stiff Person Syndrome, that makes me one in a million! Two of my kids have autism, and one has Elhers Danlos Syndrome (Another rare condition.) So life is never simple in our house, but it's always our happy place. I hope you enjoy your visit, comments are always welcome.Best Wishes,AnneI'm micro blogging about my SPS on Facebook if you would like to know more about how I feel and what is happening to me.

A little Note About Positive Reviews on Raisie Bay

A little Note About Positive Reviews on Raisie Bay

Some people only write reviews when things go wrong with products, which is good because it lets people know that there could be potential problems. I’ve also seen negative feedback with say things like, I had to return this item because the colour did not suit me…is this useful?

I write reviews on most items I buy because I like to give genuine feedback. If I have a genuine problem with a product I will write my review in the appropriate place.

I write reviews on my blog too, but they are mostly positive. Why? Because I only write reviews for the things I’ve loved. If I don’t love them I let the person who sent me them know with details why and then let them decided if they would rather me write a negative review or not write one at all. It’s always the latter.

This is my blog, my place and I’ll let you know about the things I love. If you want to find out what other people have hated about the product then you will need to look elsewhere.

My reviews may all be positive, but they are still genuine.
